### Contractor operations

Driveways, patios, and slabs are real tickets. Present monthly payments with the estimate, track every application, and see funded volume in one dashboard.

- **Run financing from one dashboard** — Manage applications, available offers, follow-up, funding status, and production in one place.

- **Track funded volume** — See funded production over time and compare it with the portfolio average.
- **Manage supported promotions** — Configure available promotions and buydowns and understand how they affect homeowner payment options.

### Site estimates and performance

Estimators send the application at the property by link or QR code. Managers see which estimators and entry points turn quotes into pours.

- **Work from the field** — Share a financing link or QR code while reviewing driveway, walkway, or other eligible concrete work.
- **Measure tools and rep adoption** — Compare activity by rep, location, link, QR code, button, or embedded entry point.
- **Measure every entry point** — Compare application starts and completions across links, QR codes, buttons, embeds, and messages.
- **Keep the experience branded** — Keep your logo, colors, and support contact present throughout the homeowner financing journey.

## Homeowners apply on the spot, under your brand, at the estimate.

- **One application, multiple programs** — Homeowners complete one application while considering the concrete scope and installed price your team has explained.
- **Direct-to-business funding** — Participating lenders fund your business under the selected program’s funding conditions.

## Frequently asked questions

### How does customer financing work for concrete contractors?

Concrete customer financing lets homeowners apply for credit toward eligible residential installation or replacement work through a participating lender. Ottri gives your business a branded application and one workspace for financing progress. Your estimator can introduce the option with the proposed work, and the office can continue follow-up afterward. One branded application reaches 20 participating lenders, so a decline from one lender is not the end of the concrete sale.

### What happens if the first lender says no?

Nothing extra for you or your customer. The homeowner fills out one branded application, and Ottri moves it to the next participating lender automatically, across 20 lenders on the Ottri network. Your customer sees one application under your brand the whole way, and you see every step in your dashboard. Each lender makes its own decision.

### Can customers apply for driveways, walkways, patios, or slabs?

A participating program may consider the specified residential project when its use, scope, amount, and applicant meet the requirements. Identify the installation and associated costs in the estimate. Ottri trade pages cover residential concrete; commercial pours and new-construction foundations are quoted and financed separately. Because one application is considered by multiple lender programs in sequence, a project that does not fit one program can still fit another.

### What does Ottri cost, and how do we get started?

Free to start. No setup fee, no subscription, no demo. Create your account, complete onboarding, and send your first application as soon as your programs are active. Lender and promotional costs, where they apply, depend on the program you choose.

### Can demolition, removal, and site preparation be included?

List that work in the estimate and confirm the costs accepted by the selected program. The request should reflect the actual project the homeowner is considering. Preparation or removal added after the original quote may change the amount and require the financing to be reviewed before work proceeds. Itemizing demolition and prep in the estimate is how one application carries the whole job.

### Will the financing stay under our brand, and are applications sold as leads?

Yes, it is your brand from start to finish. Your logo, colors, and contact are on every screen the homeowner sees. We never sell applications as leads. The customer stays yours; the participating lender simply provides the credit, and its required disclosures appear where the law requires.

### What happens if the homeowner changes the concrete finish or project size?

Update the estimate to reflect the revised measurements, finish, and installation work. Confirm whether the lender needs additional information or a review of the offer. When a plain installation grows into decorative work, the lender takes a fresh look at the larger amount in the same application. Because status lives in one dashboard, a change from plain to decorative is a quick update, not a restart.

### How can our estimator and office coordinate financing before a pour?

The estimator shares the branded application with the project estimate. Authorized office staff can then review application progress and required next steps in Ottri, including steps affecting funding. Your business coordinates the pour date after confirming the lender's remaining conditions; an application start or conditional offer alone does not release funds. That shared view is what lets the estimator schedule the crew with confidence.

### Who approves the financing and sends the funds?

The participating lender approves the financing and sets the terms. On eligible programs the lender pays your business directly, so you are never chasing the homeowner for payment. Ottri Global LLC is a licensed loan broker, NMLS 2776988, and is not a lender.

### Does applying for financing affect the homeowner’s credit?

Applying is built to be easy on the homeowner. Whether a program uses a soft or hard inquiry depends on the lender, the product, and the step, and the homeowner sees that information on screen before continuing, so there are no surprises.
